A creature moves at a speed of 7.86 furlongs/fortnight (not a very common unit of speed). If 1.0 furlong = 220 yards 1 fortnight = 14 days 1 yard = 0.9144 meter and 1 day= 86400 sec find the speed of the creature (which is probably a snail).
1. 2.28745 × 109 m/s

Answer:
2 0.00130719 m/s
Explanation:
Now we have
7.86 furlongs/fortnight
7.86 x 220 yards / fortnight
1729.2yards / fortnight
1647.8 yards / 14 days
123.5yards / day
So
123.5 x 0.9144 meter / day
112.meters / day
=112.9meters / 86400s
= 0.001307m/s
